Hello Elliot, 

	I really enjoyed the course.  I had to duck out early on the last day, but
other than that I saw the whole thing.  I have a BS in EE and four years
experience in the software industry (www.atreve.com was the latest), and I
still felt that I learned a lot.  I thought that you were a really
excellent teacher.  Examples of good teaching that I saw.

	When asked a question, you repeated it before answering.
	You had someone else run the computer terminal.

John was good as well.  He is very, very knowledgeable.  Only point here is
that I felt that he rambled a little bit too much on certain points.  I
enjoyed listening, but felt that a lot of people might have gotten lost.  

I liked the topics, and found them easy to follow, but they were a review
for me.

Definitely run the course again next year.

On a side note, I met a PhD student from your group who was in the audience
the first two nights.  She told me her name, but I cannot remember it.  I
know you know her, because both you and John called on her by name.  She
told be she was from China.  Anyway, I would like to get in touch with her,
so if you know who I am talking about could you send me her name, or tell
her to send me an e-mail.  She will remember me, as I was probably the only
student from the Sloan school in the audience.

Thanks,
	John Cochran.
